Neutropenia occurring after starting gabapentin for neuropathic pain.

E Derbyshire1, D Martin.   

Abstract

We report a case of neutropenia occurring in a patient receiving gabapentin for neuropathic pain. Five weeks after treatment started, the patient was admitted to hospital with neutropenic sepsis. Gabapentin is widely used, and neutropenia is a rare adverse effect. This case highlights a serious and potential life-threatening complication.
